And just like that, summer vacation is over. Feels like just yesterday we went on our trip to Orlando which was at the start of summer vacation.

The kids were excited to go to school today. Both of them woke up before David and I did, in part because I forgot to adjust the alarm back to an earlier time. Tyler was excited because his 5th grade teacher is the same as the one Nat had (Mrs. Kondo). They think she is the “best” 5th grade teacher there. Nat was excited to find out about her classes. She was anxious to know if she got into advanced math — which she did! That’s my girl!

Here’s to 5th and 7th grade!

Their friends Andrew and Alyssa joined us this morning to go to school together
